Honor yesterday revealed that its first smartphone co-branded with design house Porsche Design will be named RSR. The company has now quietly opened pre-reservations for the phone in China starting today.

Interested buyers can now reserve the Honor Magic 6 RSR Porsche Design by paying a 911 yuan deposit at the Porsche Store. This deposit will give them early access to the first round of online pre-orders on January 11th and 12th. Plus, they’ll receive a special surprise gift box.

However, this deposit is just for early access and will be refunded on January 13th; it doesn’t count towards the phone’s full price. This means the full payment for the Honor Magic 6 RSR will begin only on January 11th, 2024.

There’s not much we know about the Honor Magic 6 RSR edition phone, except the story behind the RSR suffix. The “RSR” in the phone’s name draws inspiration from Porsche’s racing history. It stands for “RennSport Rennwagen,” meaning “racing sport racing car” in German, typically reserved for track-only versions of the iconic Porsche 911.

Though specific details about the Magic 6 RSR are unavailable, Honor has already revealed the standard Magic 6 and Magic 6 Pro.

The Magic 6 Pro boasts a powerful 100x digital zoom periscope camera, while the Magic 6 features a still impressive 50x zoom. Both phones are expected to have 50-megapixel main and ultrawide cameras. The Pro model might also include a unique satellite connectivity feature.

Both phones will be powered by the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and run Magic OS 8.0 based on Android 14. Storage options start at 256GB and go up to 512GB, with the Pro model offering a 1TB option.
